Description

Indulge in the rich and complex flavors of Luna Argenta Negroamaro Primitivo Appassite, a captivating red wine from the sun-drenched region of Puglia, Italy. This wine is a masterful blend of Negroamaro and Primitivo grapes, known for their intense character and depth. What makes this wine truly special is the 'Appassite' method, where the grapes are partially dried before fermentation. This technique concentrates the flavors and sugars, resulting in a wine with a remarkably full body and smooth texture, which perfectly balances a higher level of alcohol. The winemaking process aims to capture the best of the grapes: A luscious bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as plums and blackberries unfolds on the nose, intertwined with intriguing notes of spice, vanilla, and dried herbs. The palate is treated to a symphony of flavors, where dark fruit notes are complemented by hints of chocolate, and tobacco, which are enhanced by the soft tannins and balanced acidity, leading to a long and satisfying finish. This wine is the perfect companion for a wide range of dishes. Its robust structure and depth make it a great match for hearty meat dishes like grilled steak, roasted lamb, or rich stews. It also pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses, pasta with tomato-based sauces, or even chocolate-based desserts. Ideally served at around 18°C, Luna Argenta Negroamaro Primitivo Appassite is an excellent choice for both everyday enjoyment and special occasions, promising an unforgettable sensory experience.
